Im going on a whim to say Jordan didnt say it was impossible. By paying attention Droptop was talking about a .030 over teskid. Not a sleeved alum. block. Which at that point the $$ in machine work and sleeves ill sacrifice 50lbs for $1500 bucks. But anything CAN be done heck if you wanted to you can drop in a 7.3L diesel. But are there better thing to waste money on ABSOLUTELY!!!!
It's an 80lbs difference, and $1200 to sleeve an aluminum block.
Compared to $999 for the Boss 5.0 block [which is still actually a good deal]
So with that said.. $300 to save 80 lbs is a pretty good deal I would say. Also I am weird, and would like to keep the block with the car..it is kinda the 'heart and soul' of it. That is pretty much the only part on my car that came from the factory, but that's just me being weird, lol.
I just hate pig cars, I like to drop weight where it is not needed, especialllly off the nose of the car.
P.S. by paying attention, Jordan said "Curtis, you can't go big bore with the Teksid Block. You have to run a Boss 5.0L Block."
He made no mention of his .030 block, just a general statement. Regardless, you can still sleeve that block.
I get it your mainly just trying to bust his chops.
